Additional Information
Statement
Reference

Drives expression in Pdf and LNv neurons.

(FlyBase Curators, 2017)

In larval brain, expression in four cells in each hemisphere; these persist into adulthood and become the small ventrolateral neurons. In adult brain, also expressed in four large ventrolateral neurons, which emerge during metamorphosis. In both larval and adult stages, expressed in a small number of cells in the posterior-most CNS.

(Park et al., 2000)

Expression of PdfUAS.cRa with ScerGAL4P2.4.Pdf is weaker than wildtype Pdf expression, but expression is within the LNv neurons.
